    Surprise, Ducati electrical problem . . .

    My Monster 600 won't start and I'm pretty sure its an electrical problem
    Anyone know who is good to go to for this as I am clueless on electrical problem solving.

    won't start or won't crank? is it making all the usual noises when you turn the key?
    Do you remember the good old days before the internet?

    when arguments were only entered into by the physically or intellectually able.

    It's probably a loose battery terminal or something similar.
    Kamahl or Derek Ball will be fine for this sort of stuff.
    BTW, nice bike. My first Duc was a 1996 600M.

    these bikes have a main plug at the front under the bottom forks
    check that connection

    also had a moster that had a faulty battery that was only 3 months old that was intermitent that caught us out

    Chuck Norris is 1/8th Cherokee. This has nothing to do with ancestry, the man ate a fucking Indian.
